Vandals

Biography

It's a testament to the importance and popularity of the Vandals that their cameo in the movie Suburbia happened not because they were scripted to appear, but because the film's cast voted them in. Also significant is the fact that a band founded in 1981 -- and not just any band, but a Punk band, no less -- continues to form a viable part of the output in the post-Post-Punk era. The Vandals' success rests on two identifiable reasons: their ability to laugh at almost anything without making themselves the butt of the joke, and their tireless touring, recording and fan recruiting. Along the way, they've moved from being mere pranksters in the Hardcore Punk world to VIPs.
